Georgia Labor Commissioner Mark Butler said Thursday that the Georgia Mountains region set two all-time records in October.
The 13-county region set all-time highs in labor force and employment, according to preliminary numbers. At the same time, the unemployment rate inched up slightly.
“October was a great month for Georgia and our local communities,” Butler said. “We continued to create jobs and people gained employment – often at record numbers.”
